The Hot Press Newsdesk, 18 Sep 2012

Following a lengthy legal wrangle with former label Atlantic Records, Derry trio Fighting With Wire have finally managed to deliver sophomore effort Colonel Blood and, as you might expect, it's fast, angry and very, very loud.

The album was recorded over a six-month period in Nashville with producer Nick Raskulinecz (Foo Fighters, Marilyn Manson, Deftones) and gets its official release via Xtra Mile Recordings on September 24. You can be among the first to check it out by clicking right here
